Huyan Zhuo - Battle of Qingzhou

Battle of Qingzhou

Huyan Zhuo is afraid of returning to the capital after his defeat. He travels alone to Qingzhou (in present-day Shandong) to join governor Murong Yanda. Along the way, he passes by Mount Peach Blossom where his steed is stolen by the bandits on the mountain. Huyan Zhuo leads the Qingzhou army to attack the bandits and subsequently brings the Liangshan outlaws into the scene when they arrive to reinforce the bandits from Mount Peach Blossom. Huyan Zhuo falls into an ambush laid by the outlaws outside Qingzhou and is captured. He decides to join the Liangshan cause after being persuaded by Song Jiang. He aids the outlaws in conquering Qingzhou and eliminating Murong Yanda.

Famous quotes containing the words battle of and/or battle:

    “The militancy of men, through all the centuries, has drenched the world with blood, and for these deeds of horror and destruction men have been rewarded with monuments, with great songs and epics. The militancy of women has harmed no human life save the lives of those who fought the battle of righteousness. Time alone will reveal what reward will be allotted to women.”
    —Emmeline Pankhurst (1858–1928)

    “For WAR, consisteth not in Battle only, or the act of fighting; but in a tract of time, wherein the Will to content by Battle is sufficiently known.... So the nature of War, consisteth not in actual fighting; but in the known disposition thereto, during all the time there is no assurance to the contrary. All other time is PEACE.”
    —Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)
